Just installed these...super easy to hook up and very cool looking. Very sharp projection image. There are several different ones available so be careful to ensure you are ordering the right one you want.

Are these from China? How long to get to you from when ordered?

Installation was a breeze; two minutes, no tools. They project a nice crisp image.

I'm glad you enjoy yours, so please don't be offended by me saying this. But I think the whole logo projected on the ground thing seems pretty cheesy. I'd much rather have some other image, maybe an animated arrow pointing in, or just a box filled with some grid lines to highlight the area under car... so you see if there's a puddle there. Just my 2c

There is an opening in the "projector" that you can remove the "slide" from and not have an image show....you'd just have a round circle of light. If you were crafty and you could take some clear film and make up whatever you'd like.

For a moment there, I thought about ordering and installing lights with the BMW logo, jus to confuse the heck out of my passengers...

I get your thought however Nissan also offers the lighted door sill plates and the under the car side lighting as options. I have both and just love the look. I kind of agree that a blank with light circle shining down might be more subtle.

Here is my Batman logo. It ended up being a combo job. I initially bought the door ghost projectors that stick on the side of the door with 3M tape. The batteries wore out so quick, it was ridiculous. So I ordered the Nissan door insert set and removed the Nissan image inside of it. I replaced it with the batman logo from the 3M tape door projectors. Then I modified the batman image insert (by cutting) and removed the white outline from the image. So now you only see the batman logo. I didnt set out to do the swap but I wanted to keep the Batman logo. Now the logo shows up brighter using the led light from the insert. Its way brighter than using the battery powered projectors!

This is the door insert - compatible with 2017 (and 16). It snapped in perfectly:

This was my first purchase but the life span using AAA batteries are a joke:
